With the support of our expert industry-practicing filmmakers and theorists, you’ll explore content made outside of dominant US and European mainstream media, drawing on themes such as ethnicity, culture, feminism and identity politics. With an emphasis on cinema that confronts dominant assumptions and narrative convention, you’ll discover the importance of representation and diversity, from documentary making through to cult classics and the avant-garde. Core specialisms of the course include film theory, film history, film criticism, cultural studies, creative and critical writing, cinema and film festival programming. The college is committed to social justice and the programme will challenge conventional perceptions of film history and theory by foregrounding marginalised communities and filmmakers from a range of ethnic backgrounds as well as their relationship to mainstream film industries. Study with us and you’ll expand your critical approach alongside developing skills in research and analysis. Our creative programmes encourage diversity in thinking and making - from practical applications through to reflective, analytical writing.
